Why is it important?
This issue of the Pom, along with my article is important in understanding how new areas of inquiry are developed and how scholars find their areas of interest.
Perspectives
I enjoyed having the opportunity to write this essay. It was a rare moment in which I stopped writing about Contemporary Pagans and sociology of religion and reflected on my own scholarly trajectory.
